Quick sketches done while enjoying a café crème at the TIME bar in Zurich’s main station. With 414,000 people using the station every day, the HB is a hot spot for sketching commuters and crowds.
Meilen has no umlaut

Read a bit about my story in an interview with Charlie O’Shields at Doodlewash by clicking on the sketch.
